I refer to question on notice 1051 where the Minister provided a table with information on the number of public housing tenancies where market rent was charged, and I ask: (a) will the Minister please clarify, does the table state the number of tenancies where market rent was charged during the year prior to the date in the first column, or does the table state the number of tenancies where market rent was charged as at the date in the first column; (b) if the table above shows only those tenancies where market rent was charged as at 30 June for each year, how many tenancies had market rent applied at any point in the following years: (i) 2017-18; (ii) 2018-19; (iii) 2019-20; (iv) 2020-21; and (v) 2021-22; (c) for each of the years listed in (b), will the Minister please provide the number of tenancies where market rent was charged because the tenants have not disclosed or updated their income details; and (d) how many of the tenancies in (b) and (c) respectively had an Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander tenant or household member?

As detailed in the answer to Question on Notice 1051, data regarding market rent tenancy status can only be provided as a point in time and is not cumulative, as such the data requested is not available.
However, should the Honourable Member have a more specific question about point in time data, the Minister will endeavour to provide an answer.
